Ten Palestinians killed in Israeli bombing of civilian gathering in Gaza

Ten Palestinians were killed and others wounded on Monday in an Israeli occupation bombing and gunfire attack targeting a gathering of civilians east of the Maghazi refugee camp.

Medical sources reported that the bodies of ten Palestinians, along with a large number of wounded, were transferred to Al-Aqsa Martyrs Hospital in Deir al-Balah, following the attack. No further details were immediately available regarding the circumstances of the strike.

The attack comes as Israeli occupation forces continue to violate the ceasefire agreement on a daily basis through shelling and gunfire.

According to available data, these violations have resulted in the killing of 723 Palestinians and the injury of 1,990 others since the ceasefire came into effect.

The agreement followed a prolonged Israeli aggression on Gaza that began on October 8, 2023, with US support, and continued in various forms, leaving more than 72,000 Palestinians dead and over 172,000 wounded, while causing widespread destruction affecting approximately 90 percent of the Strip’s infrastructure.
